You can criticize obama all you want, but don't kid yourself, criticizing Obama only strengthens republicans- just as all their internal strife, and internal criticism, strengthens Democrats. The time to criticize Obama (not that it will do a damn thing) is after he gets reelected- if you don't want to help the republicans.

IMO criticizing any political candidate does zero good unless you're a big donor, or the CEO of some large corporation, or a lobbyist representing big donors. If you are not one of those folks, all your criticism does is either demoralize folks who like the candidate you are criticizing, or enable the opposition. I disagree with Obama on several things- but I can't stand the republican candidates, so there's no way in hell I will demoralize anyone on my own side, and I'm not interested in aiding the dysfunctionals on the other side.
